Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
Why should he if WWE can't even get Graves to take the two tweets down?

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
Mauro update from WOR
-Dave says Mauro is doing very badly as far as his depression goes and that it's worse than anybody thought on Sunday so they don't know if he will be back next week because "it's a day to day situation right now."
-Corey called Frank Shamrock to apologize but not Mauro. WWE is also only talking to Frank for updates so it may be just that Corey tried to call but Mauro doesn't want to talk to anyone right now.
-Bryan asked Dave why the offending tweets are still up and Dave thinks taking them down now is going to make this a bigger story.
-Corey's singling out of Mauro but praising Beth and Nigel was because the plan was Mauro would be out with Cole and Graves so Corey wanted them to be "shooting" on each other all night. But he never asked Mauro and should have known better because JBL tried to get the same worked-shoot feud going with Mauro by calling him a mark for being excited he won a Wrestling Observer Award and it led to the same situation we currently have. Mauro is very sensitive about his work and interprets things like this as what the entire company must really think about him.
-Dave wasn't surprised Graves immediately tried to make this about he and Bryan because 30 years ago legendary sports writer Frank DeFord told him anytime he makes a really bad story news for WWE they're going to try to make it about Dave, and they've always done this to him.
-Dave thinks this story is worse than the JBL one because they know for a fact how Mauro is after that and Paul Levesque gave him his word it would never happen again and that he'd never have to deal with anyone in WWE besides Michael Cole and himself (and Mauro likes them both.) So if this story breaks out into the mainstream media like the JBL situation did WWE is going to look awful. Especially since they clearly lied about his voice being gone when he showed up to work Survivor Series but then left when someone informed him about the two tweets.
-Dave ends by saying "There's so much more to this story I can't say."

Obviously it was because she craved Vince McMahon's Ruthless Aggression!

Rusev is now being called "The Bad Boy" Rusev. I guess AEW or Janela didn't copyright it.

Hopefully they will eventually become a tag team and call themselves Wham.

I didn't watch it either. Listening to Dave & Bryan talking about the show was enough.

It does.
There doesn't seem to be anything on the show worth watching. I'll keep taking a break from it until the Rumble.

I think I'm done for good. NXT sounds pretty good but even with that I just don't want to support the company anymore.

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
I'm trying to remember when WWE was consistently good on a regular basis. Right now with the roster they have there's no excuse for them to keep putting out a bad product. Vince is going to be juggling the XFL soon too so if anything the product could be even worse.
